Dan Posted January 12, 2016 Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 My wife uses a sticky note on the dishwasher when the dishes are clean. When Roly posted his magnet the other day I said, "He's on to something." It never hurts to earn some brownie points with the wife. The core is 1/4" BB ply. I dyed one side red and one side blue. I drilled two holes for the neodymium magnets to set in. The outside is 1/32" BB ply and cover the magnets. Wifey is working right now so this will be a surprise for her. If I make more I will try using 1/8" for the core to make it sleeker. If anyone wants the pattern let me know and I'll post it.

Scrappile Posted January 12, 2016 Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 Good idea. My wife loads, I empty. I never empty until she starts nagging me. This would eliminate the nagging... nahh, it would just be something else... Sparkey and Lucky2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Scroller Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) Dan if you put some string though them you can put them around your neck and walk the streets.
